The following libraries are required: ncurses, bzip2, gdbm, glib2 and libxml2.<br />
For TLS support, you will need at least glib2 version 2.28.0 and
glib-networking installed.<br />
These dependencies should be easy to satisfy. Depending on your system, you
may have all of these installed already.<br />

Not natively, at this moment at least. As a temporary solution, it is
possible to use <a href="http://www.stunnel.org/">stunnel</a> to connect to
TLS-enabled hubs. I have tested this to work for ADC, but have no
experience with TLS on NMDC hubs. This trick does not allow encrypted
client-to-client connections, so your file transfers will remain
unencrypted.<br />
The following example stunnel configuration is what I use to connect to the
DC Development hub:</p>
Yes! To make use of this, however, you need to have relatively new version
of glib2. If you're still working with an outdated system, an alternative
is to use <a href="http://www.stunnel.org/">stunnel</a> to connect to
TLS-enabled hubs. This trick does not allow encrypted client-to-client
connections, so your file transfers will remain unencrypted.<br />
The following example stunnel configuration is what I used to connect to
the DC Development hub before ncdc had native TLS support:</p>
<pre>[dcdev]<br />client = yes<br />accept = 127.0.0.1:16591<br />connect = devpublic.adcportal.com:16591</pre>
<p>The URL `adc://127.0.0.1:16591/' can then be used to connect to the hub
from within ncdc.

For ADC: BASE, RF, TIGR, BZIP, ADCS and KEYP.<br />
For NMDC: NoGetINFO, NoHello, MiniSlots, XmlBZList, ADCGet, TTHL and TTHF.<br />
That is pretty much everything you'd expect any modern client to have. Note
that ncdc does not support some of the older protocol features, like $Get,
that ncdc does not support some of the older NMDC protocol features, like $Get,
$GetZBlock, $CHUNK, $Cancel or non-XML file lists. I am not aware of an
other up-to-date client that still uses any of these features.
